Iovine Blames Em for Detox Delay

Still waiting for Detox? Yeah, me neither. But those of you who are can blame Marshall for it’s most recent delay.
Speaking to Billboard, Jimmy Iovine explained:
I’ll tell you about Eminem. We only tried to put him out this year to replace Dr. Dre, but we got into a quagmire. Eminem was always coming next year. But what happened was, I lost Dr. Dre to Eminem. Dre had to stop making his album to finish Eminem’s album. Eminem hit a streak, and when a guy like Eminem gets on fire, you stop everything. That’s how we lost Dre.
So what’s the status of Dre’s record?
Dre’s going back in in January. He’ll be finished with Eminem by then, and he’ll finish his album.

No one probably cares, but Dre is just ah ight. I know his influence is crazy and his beats are nice, but I’m not gonna be mad if it never drops.
